We cover 764 places across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Broadfields Estate to London (12 miles away).
Edgwarebury Park can make a pretty photo stop, but check its rules for wedding groups first. Marrying at St Andrew? A reception at a garden, barn or hall close by gives the van somewhere to park for the evening.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Put bins near the van
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
- Ask your venue about catering vans first
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
Ushers or bridesmaids can send tables up in turn if you have plenty of guests.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.
Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A short walk from the party
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
As a London location, Broadfields Estate is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

How the day works
We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Evening food at a Broadfields Estate wedding frequently goes out just as the light fades: about 9:20pm at midsummer, 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Broadfields Estate
Which station is closest to Broadfields Estate?
Mill Hill Broadway station, about 1.4 miles south-east of the centre.
What about parking in Broadfields Estate?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll plan around it.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Where will the van go at our venue?
That’s up to your venue, but close to the party is best. Send us a photo of the spot.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Will the van be in our photos?
Lots of couples ask for a picture at the van. If not, ask your venue to park it out of the main photo spots.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
